Collection Contents

The papers consist of correspondence, memoranda, writings, speeches, photographs and other material that document the career of the diplomat, author and foreign policy expert and scholar Henry A. Kissinger. Dr. Kissinger served as United States secretary of state from 1973 to 1977 and as assistant to the president for national security affairs (national security advisor) from 1969 to 1975.

Part II (MS 1981) documents Dr. Kissinger’s pre-government, government, and post-government careers. It is comprised of materials that are owned either by the Library of Congress or Yale University. When the materials were in Dr. Kissinger’s possession, they formed an integrated collection. To maintain that integrity, as well as increase access to these materials, the two institutions agreed to a joint project undertaken by Manuscripts and Archives, Yale University Library to arrange, describe, and digitize them.

Part III (MS 2004) is comprised of materials mainly documenting Kissinger’s post-government career after 2000 although a few items pertain to earlier years. The materials are owned by the Yale University Library.

In 2015, Yale University Library digitized Parts II and III in their entirety. The online access system linked to this webpage through the search button to the right includes description and digital reproductions of all of the materials in the two parts.

The arrangement, description, and digitization of Parts II and III was generously funded by Charles Johnson, Yale ‘54, and Nicholas Brady, Yale ‘52.

(Part I, housed in the Library of Congress, consists of materials primarily documenting Dr. Kissinger’s government career and includes copies of records from his government service.)
